A good movie

Honestly, before watching this flick, I have never heard of it before but one of my colleagues at the time gave me the DVD so I thought I might as well check it out. To be honest, I'm not a huge fan of those Samurai action movies but I have to admit that this one was actually pretty good and it was definitely a really entertaining feature. Indeed, the whole thing looked quite gorgeous and the action scenes were very nicely done. To be honest, I still don't think it is actually a great picture as the story didn’t provide anything really original or groundbreaking and the whole thing was fairly predictable. The characters were also barely developed. But of course, such movies are not about the plot, it is all about the ass-kicking and the ass-kicking was definitely impressive and, as a result, it was definitely a cool flick to behold. Apparently, they came up with a sequel later on and I haven’t seen it but, to be honest, I’m not sure I would really need to spend much more time with these characters. Anyway, to conclude, I thought it was pretty good and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
